Every month (or two) we change the art displayed on the walls of our coffee house. We get excited about showing incredible artwork by talented Hamiltonians… especially when the art helps to foster social change. We are very excited about November’s show by Good Shepherd Centres ~ Women’s Services (Link) & The Community Centre for Media Arts (Link):

A Woman’s Journey ~ A Photo Voice Project

Over the past four months we have gathered to discuss the complexities of a woman’s journey. Through honest conversation around woman abuse, motherhood, poverty and the strength of women we have begun to articulate these complexities.

Through the photo voice project women were given artistic freedom to capture how these realities intersect in their lives. The images and ideas depicted reflect the daily lived realities of the women involved.

This exhibit is not the end result; we hope that this exhibit and its images will encourage dialogue and foster change. We hope its depictions and narratives mark the beginning of a new understanding for those who experience and hear the message of A Woman’s Journey.

These are their voices.
